Section 98
Chapter 98
Originally, Cao Hong's martial arts position in the army could not be among the top three, and there were always ones in the top five, but since Zhang Feng came, many generals have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain: Dian Wei, Huang Xu, Wen Pin, Gan Ning, Taishi Ci, Hua Xiong, Xu Rong, and Zhao Yun who had never been masked in Qingzhou. In addition, Zhang Feng and his family general Huang Zhong, including Xia Houyuan, Cao Ren, Le Jin, Cao Hong could only look up at the top ten, which made him eager to prove himself, so he dared to ride alone to meet Lu Bu's appearance.
Originally, Gan Ning and Huang Xu were the two people around him who picked one of them and were better than him, but... his surname was Cao, so he naturally became the leader.
The Xiliang soldiers chased the storm, and the soldiers with only a dozen people left were negligible for them, but did this large black army with small rings hanging on their bodies always appear?
No one gave the order, and the people of Xiliang stopped each of them, and they stopped at a distance of one arrow from Cao Hong and others. The situation changed, and they were waiting for the large army to meet.
With big eyes on both sides, the field was quiet and could be set up with a bird's nest in addition to the howling wind.
Cao Hong was impatient and watched the other party stop and peeping at him from afar, so he shouted: "Xiliang boy, can anyone dare to fight Grandpa Cao?"
Look at me, look at you, the bosses didn't follow. This guy who claimed to be surnamed Cao had a beard and his armor was dazzlingly bright. He probably wasn't a bad character. No one dared to answer for a while, and the corner of the formation began to retreat faintly.
Cao Hong finished calling, and stayed for a long time but didn't see any movement from the other party. He still silly looked at himself, and couldn't help but get angry: "Is there a guy with no balls? Come and die!"
The people of Xiliang knew that Zhang Feng was powerful, and that Huang Zhong was even injured by Lu Bu. Looking at the huge "yellow" flag behind Huang Xu, he thought it was Huang Zhong himself. Such a powerful person was just the deputy general of this strangely loud guy in front of him. You can imagine how awesome this person surnamed Cao was?
The people of Xiliang were creating shadows in their hearts and couldn't help but shrink back. If Cao Hong had watched "The Three Kingdoms", he would definitely feel that he was very Zhang Fei at this moment.
"War without fighting, retreat without retreat, what's the reason?" Cao Hong was a little dazed. Didn't Zhang Feng say that he could show off his face? Why didn't anyone dare to go? Did he ask himself to attack the other party's camp?
Suddenly, the Xiliang people's formations separated from each other like a tide, leaving a small Tao in the middle. The three generals came out together and the main master arrived.
"Who is so arrogant and dares to bully me, Xiliang, no one?" Li Jue saw that the other party was calling alone. No one on his side dared to show up, and he was so angry.
When Guo Si heard this, he and Li Le turned their heads and glanced at him, saying that's OK. Since you said that, you can go.
Li Jue knew his martial arts skills, and only when he was old Dong was there, he had to go on the battlefield himself. Now he is all in charge of the rear commanding the entire army.
"Then come on! Anyone can do it, grandpa is almost asleep." When he was embarrassed, Cao Hong had already seen him speak out, and pointed at Li Jue with a big knife.
Li Jue's face is now like a butt, and it's hard to get rid of the tiger. He really gets up by himself? If he dies, Guo Si will laugh to death. He is waiting to annex his own power.
Fortunately, Li Le, who had just colluded, spoke, "It's better to let someone meet this guy, and the two generals plunder the formation for someone."
Guo Si hated this self-righteous Li Le to death. If it weren't for the fact that he had just joined him and brought him to chase him, he would have slapped him.
So troublesome!
Li Jue smiled happily: "It's good that I'm going to see General Li's magical skills."
Li Le's martial arts are among the best in Bai Bo's army, otherwise he would not have been a member of Qu Shuai. Although he didn't know what the surname Cao was, he was not afraid of anyone because he didn't know what the word "huang" represents.
"Don't be rampant in the enemy generals! Li Le will meet you!" Li Le was wearing only a thick fur coat. In his opinion, experts of his level disdained to wear armor - it was something that people with poor martial arts used to protect themselves, and it was a symbol of incompetence.
Cao Hong was so happy when he heard this. He shouted for a long time and finally someone came. No matter you are happy, I am happy: "Kill!"
As soon as the two riders got together, Li Le began to feel a little uneasy. Oh, this guy has a big voice, I wonder how strong he is?
Cao Hong, who had been holding his breath in Cao's camp for a long time, and with his crushing defeat against Lu Bu, people who are careless in character generally do not lose confidence, but instead become more and more courageous.
With a "huh", Cao Hong raised his sword from top to bottom, and cut down with a fancy move. This cavalry battle is not like a stint in the battle, and can also move and dodge. It is difficult for the horse to change direction while running rapidly, so most of the cavalry battles will choose to fight hard for the first strike, and it is also easy to try the opponent's strength.
Li Le raised his spear with his hands up, for fear that if he couldn't hold his hand, he would be injured if he cut his sword down along the spear. The sword and spear hit each other, and there was no such loud noise of gold and iron that he would imagined, like an iron hammer falling on cotton. The huge shock at the mouth of both hands made his hands slightly numb.
"I, this guy has such a lot of strength!" Li Le originally thought he was already very awesome, especially after seeing the kung fu between Li Jue and Guo Si, he didn't know that this guy was actually a little stronger than himself.
Or it is inevitable that the sword Cao Hong used was heavier, and no matter how good the spear was, it was lighter than the big sword. Of course, the exception of Zhang Sanye.
Although the general who uses the spear is generally lighter, it also has an advantage, which is that he changes his moves quickly, and there are examples of catching the opponent from behind when the two horses are intertwined when the first move is passed. However, the general who uses the sword has very few skills.
But Li Le's trembling hands at this time told him not to think about anything else.
The two horses intersected, each bringing out a narrow and long smoke and dust, and then pulled back at a distance of about forty.
No, if you continue to work hard like this, you will definitely lose, so you have to use another method. Li Le finally realized that the guy who was staring in front of him was not easy to deal with, no wonder he was the leader.
What would he think if he knew that Cao Hong's two "deputy generals" would come out and he might be on the "one-sword" list?
After this move, Cao Hong's confidence increased greatly. Zhang Feng's brother-in-law did not lie to me. It would be no problem to win this guy with my strength.
Unexpectedly, the situation was different this time. Li Le no longer competed with him. He danced his spear like snowflakes, real and unimaginable, and Cao Hong was scared now.
Li Le's spear and moves stabbed at the flaws on Cao Hong's body. Cao Hong went to block it. The spear shrank back before it hit the knife, and stabbed it to another place. Cao Hong's sword was heavy, and soon he felt a little panting. What should I do? This guy has become smarter.
People who are impatient do not mean they are stupid. Cao Hong's eyes turned, pretending to be panting, and he went through a few moves, whipping his horse back, and shouting, "I'm not your opponent!"
Such words of admitting defeat were shouted so loudly, which made the Xiliang people burst into flames and applaud Li Le in anger.
Li Le was even more excited. Sure enough, this guy only had a few brute force and happily chased after him: "You have to leave and leave your head!"
Gan and Huang didn't know what to do, and they thought Cao Hong was really defeated. If he made any mistake, Cao Cao would blame him, so they each destroyed their own mounts and came to save Cao Hong together.
Cao Hong glanced at his eyes, his ears were so high that he heard the sound of horse hooves behind him. It was almost done. He suddenly turned around and shouted with a signboard: "Do you die!"
The sword produced in Puyang, which had been accumulating for a long time, drew a normal circle from Cao Hong's horse to behind him, and Li Le was stunned by Cao Hong's sudden turn around and shouting. Before he could calm down, Cao Hong's sword had already cut into his body from his right shoulder and cut out from his left rib. His upper body fell to the ground like a broken sandbag, and his lower body stood on the horse's back.
The noisy Xiliang people seemed to be wet with matches, and there was no smoke. The soldiers on the Cao army shouted three times: "I will win! I will win! I will win!" Then they kept their mouths neatly, and were as cold as a piece of ice.
Why did the person chasing suddenly be cut off by the person being chased? Many Xiliang people had not reacted yet, and what made them not react was that the two teams of light cavalry appeared quietly on their flanks at some point, taking advantage of the favorable terrain while everyone was concentrating on watching the one-on-one challenge on the field. When Cao Hong was still waiting to accept the cheers of victory, the rain of arrows falling from the sky made many Xiliang soldiers inexplicably become porcupines.
"Enemy attack! Hurry up! Retreat for me!" Li Jue and Guo Si turned their heads around each other, and the guards beside them tightly to protect them from leaving safely, while those ordinary soldiers could only rely on luck.
Zhang Feng and Xia Houyuan each led 2,500 cavalry and lined up along the Xiliang people's formation. So many people could save sighting. Everyone had a solid ring on their index fingers and middle fingers to avoid too many times of pulling the bowstring and hurting their fingers.
Mechanical bows and arrows were drawn. After three breaths, another neat round of volleys shot directly, making the people of Xiliang cry and cry - they are not like the Yanzhou army that has a full-body chain mail that specializes in the defense of bows and arrows!
The rear army of the Western Liang army became the only unit that was not hit by the arrow rain. The central army and the front army were more or less hit by the arrow rain. Especially in the front army with the most people watching the fun, the ground was full of wounded soldiers who fell to the ground, moaned and roared, dragging long blood marks on the ground. The injured horse was not about to die. He lay on the ground and twitched his limbs weakly, and kicked his plaintiff's owner to his brain burst.
It’s a pity that Cao Hong has an infantryman, and if it is all cavalry, the people of Xiliang will probably be able to escape by more than five figures.
The battlefield was much deserted, leaving only some soldiers looking for arrow shafts with their names on the corpses. Some of them cheered and excited when they found them: "My military achievements have been added again!" This attracted a burst of envious gaze around them.
Some soldiers were touching and scrambling the bodies one by one. In Zhang Feng's words, "This is called coming naked, going naked, and even death is dead. It is better to leave things to the living."
Ivory combs, copper plates, small pieces of jade, these Xiliang soldiers who had just made a fortune had everything on them. Some soldiers even took out a red woman's bellyband and threw it away quickly, only calling for bad luck.
